craftyhunnypie Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Our hatching eggs arrived this morning from an ebay seller - all intact! My sister has set the incubator up & we will put them in tonight! 21 days until little lavender pekins & frizzle bantams - hopefully! That means within a few days of me getting back off my hols, I'll have some little chickies!!!! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 What are you going to do with the cockerels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 my sister is having any cockerels, so they can run round her farm & carry on the breeding! She is wanting lots of chickens & to start a business selling the chickens she breeds eventually! They are not having the turkeys anymore, so she has 4 large turkey sheds that she can rear the chicks in, until they are old enough to go outside & roam free. They are not going to be meat birds - just purely for eggs & to sell as pets. But the first few lots she will keep herself to build up a decent sized flock!

Goosey Lucy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 What a fab reason to come home from a holiday. I always hate coming home and back to reality but that would be worth it. Enjoy your holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
